Hi,

the Git for Windows team just released version 1.9.2 of the
Windows-specific installers.

New Features
* Comes with Git 1.9.2 plus Windows-specific patches.
* Custom installer settings can be saved and loaded, for unsupervised
  installation on batches of machines (msysGit PR #168).
* Comes with VIM 7.4 (msysGit PR #170).
* Comes with ZLib 1.2.8.
* Comes with xargs 4.4.2.

Bugfixes
* Work around stack limitations when listing an insane number of tags (PR
  #154).
* Assorted test fixes (PRs #156, #158).
* Compile warning fix in config.c (PR #159).
* Ships with actual dos2unix and unix2dos.
* The installer no longer recommends mixing with Cygwin.
* Fixes a regression in Git-Cheetah which froze the Explorer upon calling
  Git Bash from the context menu (Git-Cheetah PRs #14 and #15).

It can be downloaded here:

	https://github.com/msysgit/msysgit/releases/download/Git-1.9.2-preview20140411/Git-1.9.2-preview20140411.exe

This release also marks a change relevant only for developers wanting to
help with the development of Git for Windows: only the net installer (i.e.
a rudimentary Git environment that simply clones everything necessary to
build Git for Windows) is available for download; the "full" installers
were not useful for Git for Windows contributors.

Ciao,
Johannes

When I try to download this version I get redirected to

https://s3.amazonaws.com/github-cloud/releases/325827/6df478ca-c1c2-11e3-822d-07b9bbc3039e.exe?response-content-disposition=attachment%3B%20filename%3DGit-1.9.2-preview20140411.exe&AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAISTNZFOVBIJMK3TQ&Expires=1398889077&Signature=7Fpp4JQ7TxQCgLLIOoNsrUbVCIo%3D 


and receive the following error:

"Connction to the server was reset, while the page was accessed". - To be 
precise the german error text I received is as follows:

     Fehler: Verbindung unterbrochen

     Die Verbindung zum Server wurde zurückgesetzt, während die Seite 
geladen wurde.

Any idea what is wrong - or - what else I could try?
